I wish it were that easy reine.

Sometimes brain chemistry rules and won’t let you ‘just decide’.

Oh, correct.
I have to take an anti-anxiety med, otherwise, I freak out over - nothing. Just get terribly nervous about silly things - like, if I get on the Interstate and drive, is my tire going to blow out and put me in a wreck? I mean really, that’s silly, it could happen but most likely it will NOT happen.

But there is something to be said, also, for making a conscious decision to accept yourself, learn to poke fun at yourself for whatever eccentricities you have.

My “aha!” moment came when I took a Myers-Briggs personality thingie, and learned I am about the most introverted of introverts. No wonder I have a just a couple of friends, instead of scads and scads of people I like to be with! There’s nothing wrong with me - I’m just not wired to be the life of the party.

So I think there are things DF can do to stop worrying so much.
